Title: 

poor sizing and extremely cheap quality

Date:January 3, 2012
"I had to order a larger size so the body part would fit, but now the head piece and knee pads are enormous! My husband stepped on the mask the second day my son had it and cracked the plastic. I think the packaging tape we repaired it with was better quality than what it was initially made from. The knee pads were made out of super thin plastic. For $27 I was extremely disappointed."

Okay but not great

Date:November 7, 2011
"my son wasn't as happy with this costume as he thought he would be. I was not impressed at all. The mask was very cheaply made and fogged up withing a minute of having it on and the knee pads were huge. The actual under suit was too small, not true to size."

kind of disappointed

Date:November 6, 2011
"My son really wanted this costume but he was disappointed when he got it. The mask didn't fit well. It was very flimsy and needed to have something under it like a hat to keep it on so he could see. The knee pads were also very cheap and the elastic was big so they kept falling off. The costume was supposted to come with a little walkie talkie, but that was missing."

Fun costume. Lots of accessories.

Date:October 31, 2011
"This is a nice costumes, come with lots of extras, i.e. a working flashlight, plastic gun, walkie-talkie, etc. Sizing is smaller than indicated. I ordered a large (12-14) for my 11 yr old and it fit him perfectly and he is small for his age so for an average boy, you might want to order the next size up."

Poor quality mask

"Although the body of the costume was adequate, the mask was very poor quality. Previous reviews gave me insight to this issue, but not to the extent of what we experienced; pulled the mask on and it immediately ripped apart."

Very Cheap!!

Date:October 28, 2011
"I read the reviews before I ordered this costume but I didnt listen. This was not a good choice for us... It was VERY CHEAP!!!! I could barely get everything to fit together. The gun, flashlight and walkie talkie was so cheap it probably wouldnt last but a couple months. It fit really funny on my child. I wasnt pleased at all!!"

Great Customer Service

Date:October 14, 2011
"As mentioned in other reviews, the head piece and the knee pads are huge and the suit under is tight. Some of the accessories aren't exactly as they appear. I will attempt to alter this to make it fit better. In the end though, my four year old is exstatic and can't wait to put the costume on. Kudos to the customer service at Costume Express for shipping out a missing item(1/2 of the flashlight) and receiving it the next day!!! I will continue to order from them because of that alone."

"I received the costume only to find that there are several areas on the costume that did not get the seams sewn together. Very poor quality. It is like I have to make the costume in order to use it. I will not order online from here again. It is just better to get in your car and go to the store. This has not saved me any time."

Cute idea...Poor Quality

Date:June 29, 2011
"When we received this item, the plastic piece holding the tube on the mask had broken off. We taped it back on, but I feel sure it won't last long. The mask and knee pads are both too big, but I expected that from reading previous reviews. The jumpsuit is a thin, Halloween-quality material and a seam is ripped from playing in the costume for about 15 minutes. The vest is cute and my son was excited about the accessories that were included. We ordered a large (12-14) even though my child wears size 8 pants and shirts. It's a little big, but he could not have worn the medium. Overall, the product is way over priced. However, when he saw this costume it was just what he had in mind for his birthday gift."

IT was ok...

Date:November 10, 2010
"Bought this for my 7 yr old son. The gas mask thing was HUGE for his head and I had to pin it to the back of his shirt so it would stay somewhat in place. The knee-guard things? Same issue. They are too big, super thin, and the thin elastic band that is supposed hold the item in place is so long it could be considered a girth.
There are almost too many accessories- take your pick- carrying accessories or carrying your trick or treat bucket.
My son mentioned boot/shoe covers would have been better and made it feel more "real".
Now the good things-
My son liked it. He didn't like the suit that came with it over his clothes (Hello, costume mfg? MOST of the country this time of year is cool....) so we went with black pants and long sleeve top instead. I fixed the elastic bands on the knee guards by fashioning a slip knot and they stayed.
Overall my son was ok with it- it was just ok, whereas in the past he's played dress up with his fireman, pirate, skeleton and policeman costumes throughout the year. The quality was what you'd expect from a halloween costume. The shipping is entirely TOO SLOW! I ordered shoes two days ago at night and today they were at my door. When you order something 30 days in advance, it'd be nice to have the time to exchange it if need be. Thankfully there was no need, but had there been I would not have been a happy camper.
